"...By now there is wide consensus around the fact that no sector of
government can thrive and reach its goals without the participation of
other sectors. Health in All Policies stresses a whole of government
approach. Working together and across sectors is not only more effective,
but also a pre-requisite to further improve the health and well-being of
our communities at the national, regional and global level.
The path towards universal health coverage and to securing the well-being
of communities cannot be addressed by the health sector alone. It needs
coordinated action by and between sectors of government, by health
professionals and other social and economic sectors and groups, by
voluntary organizations, by local authorities, by industry and by the media
and society at large. Inter-sectorial action is a sine qua non to be
successful in reducing the health equity gap. ......
..PAHO has recently established a Special Program on Health Equity and
Sustainable Development at the level of the Assistant Director, which
groups together the Social Determinants, Health Promotion, the un?nished
agenda of the MDGs, and the post-2015 agenda.
The Program will work with Member States in building the capacities for the
successful implementation of whole of government approaches. Let us
continue our efforts and determination to securing societies free of
inequities, where people have access to healthy environments and modify
social determinants to live long, healthy, and productive lives. .." Dr.
Clarissa Etienne Director of the Pan American Health Organization
".This publication includes 25 cases from 15 countries, including one
presented by the government Andalucía, Spain. Not all of them are equally
strong as examples of Health in All Policies, nor respond to all the
established criteria, but each one of them has important aspects to be
considered in the National Framework for Action of Health in All Policies.
They were selected and presented by the Ministries of Health of the region.
For these reasons, these cases are organized in alphabetical order by
country, as no hierarchy was established with regards to their
qualifications in the order they are presented."
